SIR Thomas Williams, Baronet, who was committed Yesterday to The Fleet, for threatening of Henry Griffith (Servant to the Lord Bishop of Bangor), in the Passage from the Parliament House, did this Day exhibit his Petition to the Lords, and was released of his said Imprisonment, and the rather at the Bishop of Bangor's Intreaty; and the Lord Keeper admonished him to acknowledge the Bishop of Bangor's Favour herein.

Witness in the E. of Bristol's Cause.

Sir Walter Ashton, Knight, was this Day sworn in open Court, ex parte Domini Regis, versus Comitem Bristol.

The Lord President reported the Order conceived by the Lords Committees for Petitions, touching William Galthorp, in bæc verba: videlicet,

Galthorp versus Sir George Reynells.

"That, upon the reading of the Petition of William Galthropp, it appeareth, that Richard Culpeper, being in the Custody of Sir George Reynells, Marshal of the King's Bench, by virtue of an Execution at the Suit of the said Galthropp, and the said Culpeper petitioning to the Parliament, which was referred to the then Lord Keeper; he the said Lord Keeper awarded a Habeas corpus cum causa, to bring the said Culpeper before him, after the End of the said Parliament; and, by virtue of a false Return of the said Writ unto the said Lord Keeper, he the said Richard Culpeper was released by his Lordship; which Return the Lords Committees for Petitions have viewed; and they do think fit, that the said William Galthorpe may take his Remedy at the Common Law against the said Sir George Reynells for the same;" which was Ordered accordingly. And it was further Ordered, Sir Charles Cæsar and Sir Peter Mutton to tax the Charges to be allowed to Galthorpp in this Suit here, and the same to be paid him by the said Sir George Reynell.

Grigson versus Everard & Ux.

The Earl of Bridgewater reported an Order conceived by the Lords Committees for Petitions upon the Petition of Richard Grigson, against the Proceeding in Chancery, between him and John Everarde and Mary his Wife; which the said Lords Committees had referred to the Lord Chief Baron and Mr. Baron Denham, whose Report was also made; and thereupon it was Ordered, That the said Cause shall be heard with Counsel at the Bar this Day Sevennight.

E. of Bristol at the Bar.

The Earl of Bristol being at the Bar, after a shot Speech touching the Examination of Witnesses against him, delivered his Petition, (fn. 1) which was read, in hæc verba:

His Petition.

"To the Right Honourable the Lords of the Higher House of Parliament.

"The humble Petition of John Earl of Bristol.

"1. Humbly beseecheth your Lordships, that he may not be concluded, by Publication of Witnesses, from the Use of such Secrets and Mysteries of State as he shall conceal, if there had been Occasion, for his just Defence, to (fn. 2) publish them.

"2. That, forasmuch as Mr. Attorney hath not replied, and so no Issue joined upon any Points certain (as is usual), and many Witnesses produced on His Majesty's Behalf, some of them mere Strangers to the Earl; so as he cannot conceive to what Points they shall be examined, and thereby unable to minister Cross Interrogatories to them, or fortify himself by Counter-proof:

"That your Lordships will be pleased to Order, That Mr. Attorney set down to what Proofs of his Charge, or the Earl's Answer, he intendeth to examine them; and to what Purpose their Testimony is intended.

"3. That, if any Examinations be taken on His Majesty's Behalf, which are not direct to prove the Matters of the Charge, they may be suppressed and burnt.

"Bristol."

Orders of the House, in Answer to it.

This Petition being read, and considered of in Parts; and upon the First Part of his Petition it was Ordered, That Letters wherein Arcana Imperii are contained, as he affirms, he may produce them to be proved; and yet he is to keep them secret, till he hath Cause to use them for his Defence; and then, though Publication be granted, he is not concluded from them.

Upon the Second and Third Parts of the Petition, touching Witnesses produced by Mr. Attorney, and Examinations taken on His Majesty's Behalf; it was Ordered, That Mr. Attorney is to examine none, but to maintain the Points of the Charge, or to contradict the Earl's Answer.

Unto the Fourth and Last Part of the Petition no Answer was given; neither is the same to be entered till the Lords have further advised thereon.

Lord Percy's Precedency.

It is referred to the Lords Committees for Privileges, etc. to consider of the right Place due to the Lord Percie. And it is Ordered, That the marshaling of him by the Heralds shall be no Prejudice unto him in the mean Time.
